We analyzed the data using descriptive and inferential statistics.Results: The 39 participants, aged 25 to 44, were mostly women. For both perceived competence to act as a CA and the acquisition of the required skills, the proportion of professionals responding positively increased significantly immediately after the training and decreased six months later. Although professionals intended to act as CAs right after the training, their actions had not materialized within the following six months.Conclusion: Support measures may help sustain the effects of the training in the medium term and encourage real-world implementation of change agent actions.","PeriodicalId":72503,"journal":{"name":"Canadian medical education journal","volume":"16 4","pages":"28-33"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12476010/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145187639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A tool for documenting students' appropriate use of SE is needed to ensure benefit on learning. The objective of this project was to develop such a tool and report on evidence of its validity.Methods: We used DeVellis's eight steps to develop the tool. Assessors applied the tool to 85 audio-recorded SEs. We calculated students' mean number of inferences (biomedical, clinical, monitoring) and case elements used when self-explaining to document validity evidence of content. We used interrater agreement, with intraclass correlation coefficients, to document validity evidence of response processes.Results: Three assessors documented the students' use of SE with the tool. They found means of 13.33 to 17.76 biomedical inferences, 16.27 to 27.04 clinical inferences, 2.03 to 3.10 monitoring statements, and listed 21.77 to 26.87 case elements. Interrater reliability varied from 0.53 to 0.96.Discussion: We developed the tool using the principles underlying SE. The way students used SE aligned with our expectations. Assessors used the tool in a consistent way. The tool could document students' use of SE in experimental or educational contexts.","PeriodicalId":72503,"journal":{"name":"Canadian medical education journal","volume":"16 4","pages":"14-22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12476007/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145187716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tracking the practice locations of medical graduates is essential for addressing healthcare disparities and workforce shortages in underserved regions. This study examines the geographic distribution of residency graduates from a Canadian francophone university, aligning their practice locations with the university's social accountability mandate.Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted using data from the Canadian Post-M.D. Education Registry (CAPER) for 2,410 residency graduates (2000-2020) from 35 residency training programs. We analyzed practice locations at two-, five-, and 10-years post-graduation across medical specialties, sex, and geographic region, with a focus on Quebec's administrative health regions.Results: There were 2,410 graduates from 35 residency training programs. Family medicine accounted for 57.8% of all graduates and 42.2% were from all other specialties. Most graduates (77.7%) practiced in the province of Quebec, with concentrations in the regions of the Eastern Townships (19.4%), Montérégie (14.6%), and Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean (7.6%).Conclusion: This study demonstrates the important regional impact of the university's role in training family physicians and addressing healthcare needs in Quebec. The findings suggest the importance of tracking to inform evidence-based workforce planning and policy development. Medical schools can leverage such data to align training programs with societal health needs and enhance their contributions to regional healthcare systems.","PeriodicalId":72503,"journal":{"name":"Canadian medical education journal","volume":"16 4","pages":"47-57"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12476015/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145187659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
